Ingredients

4 medium-sized russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes

3 tablespoons olive oil

Zest of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Prepare Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the potato cubes with olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.

Arrange Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potato cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure there’s enough space between the cubes for maximum crispiness.

Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through. Bake until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside.

Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the potato cubes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and additional lemon wedges, if desired.

Enjoy: Serve the Crispy Lemon Herb Potato Cubes as a delightful side dish or a tasty snack!
